I have a boatload of work to do on the damned day job (filthy lucre!!!) and I have 23 people coming for Christmas Eve (which wouldn’t actually mean much unless you saw my house) and Tax Deduction #1 is home on Christmas break (yay) and I want to spend some time reading and writing (and possibly sewing). I’ll be back Saturday or Sunday or thereabouts. Thought I’d leave you with a pic of what a friend called my “dredle tree,” which lives in my office in November and December.
Very nice tree.
Have a wonderful holiday!
Whatcha sewing? I’ve been sewing PJs for the hachlings. And I wanted to do napkins, and pretty ruffled pillowcases but there’s no TIME.
Thanks, Jessica. Happy Hanukkah to you!
Eva…just finishing up some needlework I did last year. You know, the kind of stuff that never gets framed or made into…anything. Just stuffed in the back of a closet for later.
I love it! I grew up with an aluminum tree with blue ornaments and finally broke down and bought one along with a color wheel last year. I didn’t put up a tree this year, but I’m pretty sure the silver one will make another appearance next Christmas.
A couple of years ago I bought a bona fide circa 1965 aluminum tree and a color wheel off eBay.
Unfortunately, it had come from a smoker’s home and the branches stunk to high heaven. I sold it (for a profit, naturally).
Dude prefers living trees, but didn’t have the time and energy to go get one.
Hey, your RSS feed suddenly disgorged 10 new posts! I mean, I’d already read them so they were not new but gently used, but still, yay for feeds feeding feedily. Long may it continue.
Gently used posts. Heh.
That happens to feeds I subscribe to sometimes, but it’s always different ones. I can’t figure out what makes it do that or what turns it back on.
